Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
Natasha learned absolutely nothing from her grandmother falling with a little help from her. You have shown your readers how to create the perfect villain. Take a self-centered child and add a mother who doesn't want to be bothered by problems and wants to believe whatever her daughter says to keep the peace, such as it is.

True words! It's unfortunate but some never learn. Thanks so much for the review.

This is another excellent chapter. You sure have done a good job of making Nat a horrible person. Will Grannie make it? I do not see any room for improvement. Have a blessed day.

Yes, she most definitely is something else. She's got her act down to a science depending on who she is trying to manipulate at the time. Thank you so much for reading and for your support.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
Natasha can't be allowed to get away with this, or the lies that she has told about her father. What a rotten girl she is, I certainly wouldn't want someone like her living with me. Her grandmother was too kind to her, it wasn't appreciated by Nat or Nat's mother, Isabella's daughter. I'll be looking for this tomorrow! Well done, my dear friend. Nearly there, and I hope you are feeling good about it. Love and hugs, Sandra xxx

Hello, my dear
Yes, I am feeling good about it. I know I struggled with my choice of ending, but in the end, I believe I chose the right one for the story. I do recognize that Isabella opened herself up to a lot of the grief, by allowing her family to step on her. Maybe a reader or myself might take away a different outlook than before. I could not have even began this journey without your encouragement. I hope you will find the ending satisfying for all.
Smiles and hugs...Love ya, Carol
P.S. I already am writing on the next book. Guess the writing buzz is in full gear. (Smiles)
Comment from Ric Myworld
Kids, and grandkids, we can't live comfortably with them, and we can't kill them. But sometimes, we'd sure like to beat their butts and let them know they aren't in charge. But in truth, we hindered them with what I call the poor Timmy syndrome, where we make everything easy as we can make it for them. Thanks for sharing.

Couldn't agree more! Isabella stood up to them and lost her family... but then, maybe she never really had them. Thanks so much for following this story. Tomorrow is the finale!
But never fear... I already have another one in the works!

As it goes, "you can never have what was never really there." But trust me, there will come a time when they realize their losses and come begging. It just takes time. It did for me, but by then, I could no longer forgive and forget.

I can understand that! I never thought I'd be able to flip the page and move on... but it seems a bit easier every day. I'm not perfect and I still cave to my family at times. I always hope there is some good left.

Well, I finally caught up with the story. I will be awaiting the final chapter on Sunday. The story has been a thriller right from the beginning. I'm looking forward to the resolution.

Comment from barbara.wilkey
I do hope Officer Lakewood caught Natasha's last mutter. I was hoping Becky would admit the truth. I guess not. Also, as the EMT arrived so did Becky. Maybe that will let them know she's lying. She wasn't with Natasha when this happened. Thank you for sharing.
Nat paused before continuing. "She went to bed. (continuing,)

Well, my friend, the ending is near. You always seem to know what I'm thinking so do you think you have the final chapter finished out? I can't wait to see what your reactions are.... I struggled with my choice, but in the end, I believe it was the right choice for this story.
Smiles, Carol
SEE YOU TOMORROW!

LOL We'll see. I'm not at all sure.

If I sneak a certain cowboy in at the end, will it sway you? LOL
Comment from BethShelby
You brought us back nicely to where you started this story. Now I wondering if any of fhis really happened or the part of the story you created. Either way it is intense and really adds a lot of drama as is there is plenty all ready. I look forward to reading the end tomorrow but I'll miss it. I hope you have another book in mind. This one has been especially interesting and concerning because so much of your own life is wrapped into it.

Oh my goodness, I didn't think anyone had sixes left so late in the week. I am honored to receive one from you. The truth is blended with the fiction, and the pain is difficult to separate, but I'm thankful I was able to write it. Thank you for all your encouragement and support.
Smiles, Carol
Comment from karenina
Hmmm. Great chapter, showing Hat's not half as clever as she thinks. The bedroom clearly shows this was not a simple fall...unless it was accompanied by a minor earthquake!
I think Natasha's lies are going to catch up with her!
I do hope Isabella survives!

Thank you my sweet Karenina...
I'm thrilled for being able to finish the book, but nervous about how the readers will react to the ending. For me, it was the right choice. Others may disagree, but I hope they found the book interesting. I can't wait to hear your response.
Love ya, Carol

Me either!
Comment from LJbutterfly
This has been a wild ride. So far, throughout the story, everything has worked out the way Natasha wanted it. Her clueless mother has believed every lie. I hope someone asks enough questions to hold Natasha accountable. I have thoroughly enjoyed this masterpiece and look forward to the ending chapter.
